Becoming Michelangelo:Confessions of a Cuban Sex Addict returns to DMAC for an electrifying third year. The true story of Michelangelo, artist, ex-rent boy, husband, mentor and sexual outlaw. Tickets are free at smarttix.com but reservations are required.

"From the age of three until the age of six I enjoyed a rather delightful sexual relationship with my father....I wish it had not happened as it sexualized me a such a young age and robbed me of my childhood" so begins Becoming Michelangelo: Confessions of a Cuban Sex Addict, written and designed by Michelangelo Alasa', a walk through, theatrical art installation filled with video, found objects and words. Alasa' shares his personal journey through Confessions, a snapshot of his queer coming-of-age experience during the 1960s.

When he did not find love at home, he found it in the arms of Barbra Streisand who provided the soundtrack to his life; Gertrude Stein who opened the world of art to him as well as Marilyn Monroe, Greta Garbo, Trman Capote, Tennessee Williams and Serge Diaghilev among others who inspired him. Cathartic in nature, this performative exhibition reminds us of our deepest secrets, darkest longings, and biggest triumphs.
